It’s the end of November which means one big, important, exciting thing. Christmas is coming! And although that is exciting for every child (and child at heart) it’s even more exciting with a new baby or baby sibling to share it with! And of course, we know exactly how that feels in our household! So to celebrate, we have created a little vintage Christmas wonderland in the studio! We have an exciting little package to share with our lovely clients, and to extend to new friends as well. Christmas mini-sessions are a perfect way to see our studio and get a taste for our photography. We have exciting things up our sleeves for 2016, and can’t wait to share with you!

Our exclusive Christmas Photo Sessions run for approx 20 minutes, and can involve just baby, or all siblings too! Package includes an online gallery of your images, a facebook preview to share with family and friends (we can even make this into a digital Christmas card!) and your favorite FIVE images as full resolution digital downloads. Of course if you love them all, we have a huge special to have them all*! Christmas Mini-Sessions are $120. (for up to 3 children, $30 per child after)

Christmas Mini-Sessions will be running during the week, and we have VERY limited places available on Sunday 29th November and Sunday 6th December. So please get in quick!

If you are after a more natural family portrait session to gift your partner, or grandparents, or even yourself, we are also extending our Spring Special as gift vouchers, AND can be used as outdoor or studio sessions. This means if you purchase a session before December 31st 2015, you have until December 31st 2016 to use it. Perfect Christmas present for those with a little one on the way!

So without any further rambling, here’s our first first Christmas session of the year, little miss 9 months!

It is with great excitement that Alex & I announce the birth of our daughter Arlette Rosalie Mary Dewar. Born on the 15th July, weighing 6 pounds 7.

As some of my lovely clients know, it was a rough pregnancy and our little one had a rocky start to this world, requiring a short stay in Special Care. Affectionately nicknamed “Diva”, Arlette already has us wrapped around her little finger and is slowly learning the demands of being a photographer’s daughter!

Ask any baby photographer and most will say, that posing and taking photographs of your own baby is not easy. I found it almost impossible! I started out with so many ideas that I wanted to do, dreamed up so many beautiful images while I was pregnant. Forgetting my own number one rule with newborns. THEY decide what images they want of themselves! So with this in mind I let Arlette practically posed herself, I just gently persuaded in some areas of course

I remain on Maternity leave, however we look forward to returning to the studio to continue capturing beautiful memories for our clients very soon! In the meantime, here is the start of many images – our dear Arlette in her first week xx
